Mr.. Mallory expatiated on the great differ.
ence between the French and American
ideas of liberty and equal rights as exempli-
fled in their old republic, showing that the
American idea was ''of the people, for the
people and by the people" All
old issues were forgotten and
now all were united in celebrating one birth
day. Two thousand people surrounded the
Everett House piazza and applauded the pa
triotic utterances to the echoes.

Mrs. Lucinda Smith, wife of Mr..

Mrs. Lucinda Smith, wife of Mr.,
Lecil Smith, died at the home of her
son, Mr.. F. M. Smith, in this place,
last Monday night, March 2Sth, at s
o'clock, and was buried in the new
cemetery on the following afternoon.
Mrss Smith had been an invalid for
some time, and looked forward with
eagerness to the coming of the death
angel who should bear her spirit up
to the presence of the God whom she
had served and worshipped through
a long and useful life. Loving hands
tenderly soothed the pains of her last
days on earth, and warm hearts will
cherish her memory till they meet
again in the mansions of the blessed.
The extraordinarily funny freaks
of the weather this week have occa-
stoned more than the usual amount
of comment on that never failing
topic. 1t turned quite cold last Mon
day, and just before night suffi-
cient snow fell to make the ground
quite white. The temperature got as
low as 2S0 above zero Monday night,
and on Tuesday morning ice was
found in exposed vessels nearly an
inch thick. There was also good
deal of frost on Wednesday morning.
These two freezes finished up what
peaches and plums the frost of a week
previous had left, and also destroyed
a good many apples and pears.
"A public meeting was held in the
Court house last Saturday afternoon,
at which committee consisting Of
Messrs. j. G. Biles, J. F. Merford and
Ed. ]. Wood, were appointed to go
out and meet the engineers
of the Tennessee Midland
Railroad now surveying between
Woodbury. and Rock Island, and as
certain upon what terms another sur
vey could be made for that road from
Woodbury. to this place. A memo
rial was prepared and signed by the
general county committee, setting
forth the advantages of this route.
Armed with this, the Committee ap-
pointed on Saturday went out this
(Friday) morning to interview the
engineers. We will not be able to
give the result of the conference be-
fore next week.

The Sequachee News reports our
townsmen, Messrs. w. T. Murray
and S. T. O'Neal in mysterious coun-
Gil at Pikeville recently with Con-

the movement portends something
in the nature of boom for the val
ley.
AS a prohibition lecturer, the
"Star of the Cheyenne Indians" who
lectured here during the past week,
would make a big success. He
handles the "scittawaboon business
without gloves, and if the prohibi-
bition people could secure his services
for the campaign this summer, he.
would do good work for the cause.
Rev. A. T. Crawford will preach
at the Presbyterian church in this
place tomorrow morning at II o'clock,
The public general are invited, and
all the members of that church are
urged to be present, as it is desired to
hold a congregational meeting after
the service.
Quarterly court meets Monday,
and there will no doubt be a large
crowd in town. Put an extra dollar
in your pocket for the STANDARD a

good list of new subscribers and re-
newals that day. There are several
hundred families in the county who
ought to take the STANDARD, but
don't.
The proceedings of the railroad
meeting at Viola last Saturday will
be found in our Viola correspondence

awake on the subject, and will make
a noble effort to secure the Cincinnati
